Default New bar ends

I need some .....

Any advice ..... does and don't ??

Bear in mind my bike is an all year round commuter/ hack bike ..... so the latest carbon fibre, neon flashing, feather-weight (you know the sort of stuff Barwell would buy) .... is of no interest to me !!

Also, and I can't figure it out .... after refitting them after having my hot grips removed, one doesn't seem to sit in tight against the bar end ??!?!! .... how do they attach ... do I need specific for my bike ??


Thanks

Look on the alphasports website http://www.alpha-sports.com/suzuki_parts.htm for understanding how the OEM ends fit.

I bought some of these from HG http://www.hein-gericke.co.uk/shop/p...oducts_id/6415 they're good for the price, however they're not as heavy as the stock bar ends.

This might not be an issue, but I've noticed more vibration than before, although that could be down to loads of things like I have a different front tyre on now and also the bike has covered lots more miles so it might not have anything to do with the bar ends.
